Iron Point is a polearm that is a direct upgrade to the Beginner’s Protector. This weapon was part of the game’s launch and does not have any secondary stats or passives. According to the lore, Iron Point strength is derived from the one who wields it. To a traveler or a protector, this weapon seems much more powerful than it is, which hints at the fact that it is not the weapon that is important but the strength of the person wielding it. The weapon is merely a path to channel this.

Story
A simple weapon that exudes a certain austerity.
For those who defend that which they must protect,
Or a traveler with naught to their name but themselves,
Even the most mundane of weapons might be ten times as powerful as it seems.

FAQs
How much exp is the Iron Point worth while using it as a fodder?
Iron Point is worth 1200 exp. This is more than an Enhancement Ore which provides 400 exp but less than a Fine Enhancement Ore which is worth 2,000 exp.
Can Iron Point be refined?
Iron Point can not be refined, just like the rest of the weapons belonging to this series. This weapon does not have any passives as well, making it pointless to refine it.
How do you get Iron Point in Genshin?
Iron Point is fairly common in Genshin Impact. You can obtain them from certain inspection points or from opening common or exquisite chests from all over Teyvat. If you want a guaranteed Iron Point, you can buy it from Wagner, Master Zhang and Hajime, the blacksmiths of each region, for 600 Mora.
Final Thoughts
Iron Point is the only 2 Star polearm available in the game. It is a direct upgrade to Beginner’s Protector, which doesn’t make it useful. This is further supported by the fact that all of the weapons of this series share a striking resemblance to the ascended forms of the 1 Star Series. Apart from the significant Base ATK increase, this weapon is just not very useful which is partly due to its lack of secondary stats and refinement passives.
